The Erosion of Extended Family Ties - What to Expect Next
Another vital factor contributing to the weakening of family ties is the diminishing presence of extended family relationships. This shift is driven by decreasing birth rates, increased migration, and the growing demands on people’s time. As families scatter across the world, maintaining close bonds with relatives such as cousins, aunts, and uncles has become notably challenging. Migration for…

Yes we founded this hobby in late victorian europe where we divide animals of the same species from around the globe into races and measure them with calipers and put extreme emphasis on blood purity and conformity but WE SWEAR this has zero links to the eugenics movement that was coincidentally happening at the exact same time and place
#selective breeding has been happening for thousands of years but insisting the current model has zero ties to eugenics is cope#eugenicists were constantly taking prompts from the animal world and vice versa at the time#you cant talk about darwinism at the time without social darwinism and all the implications it held it was all part of a larger model#and victorians obsession with order and hierarchy that permeated every part of society#like this is just how many of them saw the world ofc it got applied to animals

Actually there is something so choice about how the narrative around Jason’s death pre-ressurection spends so much time reassuring Bruce (and the audience) that Bruce has no culpability and that Jason was hopeless and even at times tries to convince us that actually Jason wasn’t even really his son so Bruce didn’t fail as a father, he did the best he could really. Bruce doesn’t owe him anything. This could be seen as an attempt to distort history in order cope with Jason’s death, but this narrative is never actually challenged, we’re meant to take it as truth. And then Jason comes back and drags Bruce by the ear and goes actually no bitch you do owe me something you owe me a death. Bruce doesn’t get to wash his hands of him. Jason forces the issue, he refuses to let Bruce walk away clean. Good, he shouldn’t <3
#The narrative wants to have its cake and eat it too. We can milk Jason for man pain but we can’t have Batman implicated in a child’s death#and then Jason breaks the peace by climbing out of the fridge and grabbing Bruce by the throat to make demands. If#‘A ressurection is a wound reopening’ Jason has his fingers in there clawing that shit open and he’s getting them both covered in blood 😁#Jason Todd#Dc#Bruce Wayne#Batman#This has been in the drafts for 2 weeks but it fits with my recent flurry of Bruce and Jason posts. You can tell the Gotham Knights social#worker arc pissed me off 🙈#Jason hardly gets to defend himself but at least he has a voice again. At least he gets to make demands

i will literally defend to the death women talking about getting an "ick" about male partners. yeah it’s kind of a dumb term but it serves its purpose. it’s my view that what’s talked about as "getting the ick" is actually looking back, rather than being looked at, often for the first time in a relationship. when you’re not caught up in the performance and charm of your relationship, when you’re a little disengaged, when you’re just looking at the guy. and you start to think … am i attracted to him? have i ever been attracted to him? and so yeah sometimes it’ll be tiny innocuous things. i don’t care if watching her boyfriend order dessert in a restaurant or carry a water bottle or eat messily or cry is the sudden tipping point when she takes a step back, really looks at the guy, and goes "what am i doing? i don’t even like him" like good for her for realizing and getting out. listen to your gut.
#there are a lot of popular posts im vaguely addressing but there’s not a specific one#but i hate the implication that it’s down to women being shallow or callous or enforcing misogynistic stereotypes on men#especially the last one that’s so fucking bold to claim#we KNOW women are socialized to believe we must be in and be fulfilled by relationships with men#which means there WILL be sudden moments of realizing that you have not once considered your own personal feelings about that man#i think women should talk about it more if anything#it’s a very real phenomenon and we shouldn’t ignore why it might be so common a feeling#rose post

tired: fox has never done anything wrong in his life he was under control of the chip he didn't mean to kill fives he would never do that
wired: fox was being deliberately, continuously manipulated by palpatine into doing anything he wanted under threat of severe bodily harm, no chip necessary
inspired: fox is a product of brainwashing and genuinely believes in the senate and the republic, which is in constant conflict with the rhetoric he hears from politicians and his general dislike of senators, but that conflict is ultimately irrelevant. he believes in the institution with his entire self. he was born to die for this system and would lose his shit if he started questioning it in any meaningful way. The Institution told him to kill fives so he killed fives, it told him to hunt down ahsoka so he did it, etc etc. conviction that this is all worth it because the republic Can Only Be Right (or else his entire existence and everything the guard puts up with are meaningless) is what gets his ass out of bed in the morning. he'll do terrible things to protect it, and by extension his sense of self, and he won't apologize for it because it's categorically Right in his brain. none of this changes the fact that he's routinely abused by this system, or the fact that he's enslaved by it, or that he has no real choice in anything, only how he personally reconciles it all
send tweet
#none of this makes him a cop either so jot that down#it makes him a victim of lifelong conditioning and it makes him delusional but it Does Not make him a villain#seen some RANCID fox takes on this site recently#how precisely the fuck do you get from fox is a member of a security force composed of slaves with minimal autonomy and no choice in their#post to fox is a cop complicit in palpatines plans and therefore a dirtbag because he [checks palm] killed your blorbo#be mad at him sure but the implication that he has all this power by nature of being in the guard is wild 💀#i just don't think chips would be necessary after 10 years of The Republic Is The Only Way being drilled into the clones' brains. not for t#e day in day out of the war#and especially not for the clones who get that lesson most frequently reinforced#ANYWAY.#commander fox#foxposting#fox isn't a dirtbag for doing his job he's a dirtbag because he's an asshole 👍#hmmmm it's almost like the more scifi bullshit like control chips is stripped away the more sw becomes a legitimate social commentary about#control and autonomy and government and systemic oppression#the boys can be dehumanized and manipulated by the existing framework without being mind controlled 🥴#idk where i was going with this but here we are

anyone else feel like we moved on pretty quickly from cavs sleeping at the foot of their necros’ beds like dogs and what that implies about the position of the cavalier both internally within the cav and outside of the cavalier as an individual
#slaps the concept of cavaliers this thing can be soooo dog-like / gendered / full of social implications#like who chooses to use the cots (i think they’re cots right idr rn) and who doesn’t hmmm#i’ve seen a post or two talking about it but that’s it

BTW if you think calming corners, sensory rooms, and other forms of dedicated spaces to handling overload, anxiety, or intense emotions in your house is something only for kids - or even worse - only neurodivergent kids, you are largely denying yourself a very helpful resource based on social norms.
Having a space dedicated to being safe and with easy access to things to help lower overstimulation and calm intense internal experiences is something that everyone can benefit from having
Not just kids
Not just neurodivergent kids
Not just neurodivergent adults
Not just mentally ill adults
Everyone - even the hypothetical person with no mental illness or physical disability
There is nothing "immature" about having spaces organized to make your difficult times easier to handle and I think everyone should consider dedicating maybe even just a shelf or corner in their place to having an abundance of self care resources
Self care is not a limited resource and not something that you have to be "bad enough to have"
If you think its a good thing for parents to provide their kids with rooms / spaces dedicated to different ways they can self regulate, then you should agree that if you are also dealing with any levels of difficulty self regulating, that it should be a good idea and good thing to provide yourslef with rooms / spaces dedicated to ways to help you self regulate
Children and adults both have emotions and life experiences that are hard to regulate / handle and both need ways to relax and calm down
Self care, sensory rooms, and coping / calming corners are resources that can help both children and adults with those difficult moments
#alter: fei#alter: riku#as someone who just realized that I don't need an office (ie the socially normal safe space that I used to have)#and instead could just have what all my neurodivergent kids have#and even just young kids have had in their classrooms and theraputic spaces had#and that it worked much better and there was no reason - other than the implications of mental illness and thus social stigma of having one#as to why I didnt just have one#and i am zero percent regretting it this is so much better for my mental health#actuallyautistic#autism#adhd#actuallyneurodivergent#actually neurodivergent#actually did#actuallydid#dissociative identity disorder#ptsd#self care

There's an in-universe Vees fandom, and a subset of it is the in-universe Voxval shipping. People overanalyze their every interaction, make conspiracy threads and videos, etc.
Velvette encourages this because 1) she thinks it's hilarious, 2) it festers parasociality
She'll like. Post a random picture of them standing next to each other but then put a heart sticker between them and everyone in the comments will be like "Velvette tell us your secrets!!!"; "Our prophet share your knowledge!!!", etc.
#.ramblings#i wonder what the vee fans would call themselves#the fandom drama would be wild there#the ethical implications of stanning overlords#I want a social media fic so baddd#vox#valentino#velvette#the vees#staticmoth#voxval#hazbin hotel#hazbin hotel vox#hazbin hotel valentino#hazbin hotel velvette

Sorry I forgot Hanneman suggested Byleth undress after they show up with a different hair color. And I miss Hanneman. And also while swapping between Houses and Hopes and seeing Hanneman pop up to help in a Hopes paralogue is just devastating since he doesn't ever actually join you at all and I am denied my old man rights.
So I had to draw this. Thank you for understanding.
#fe three houses#byleth#hanneman von essar#i like that Byleth just kinda stares at him and he realizes WHAT HE SAID and the implications and is like#step back uh forget that I said that#like man so zoned in on research he blurts that out and has to backtrack mentally to AH socially bad to say that my bad#if i need to tag this as anything lemme know even though it is a conversation in game basically (minus the marriage)#also if you have never married hanneman i genuinely enjoyed his s support and was VERY surprised and hes just#honestly one of my favorites overall in 3h ?? and im still bummed i cant play as him in thropes like thats just mean#also i think if byleth was like oh well if its awkward to see someone undress randomly#then marriage would solve the awkwardness this is truly the best deduction#which is really funny that i can see it happening with both leths despite my hc of them#with fyleth as bi and myleth as ace i think both would just be like AH cool we can avoid awkwardness by marriage#and hanneman just wants to go lie down in a ditch because he said something like that#and and byleth doesnt even know about religion while working at church school they dont know about school regulations#that wasnt really on their mind to check ok just saying you could tell byleth no to something#and then they just go oh school policies i understand unfortunately#and the person is like no we just meant its frowned upon to do archery practice in the tea garden its not technically illegal just dont??

Many years ago J. Michael Straczynski wrote a miniseries for Marvel's MAX imprint called Supreme Power, which was itself a spin on the classic Marvel Faux Justice League The Squadron Supreme. And in this miniseries you've got a Flash Expy, The Blur, who in a very compelling way is like the inverse of A-train from The Boys. They're both black speedsters from impoverished backgrounds who use their powers to become walking billboards instead of going directly into conventional superheroism- at least in part because there isn't actually a lot of call for conventional superheroism. They even share a color scheme.
But unlike A-Train, whose moral core is thoroughly corroded by celebrity, Blur's apparent crass commercialism ends up being thematically linked to the fact that he's easily the most moral and considerate of the entire first wave of superheroes, because he's literally the only one of these people who's ever had to work any kind of day job, and thus the only one who's really in any way beholden to the logic of human society and its associated common courtesy.
#the other superhumans falling on the spectrum from “I am inherently better than you and know better than you”#to “I am literally bronze-age royalty and will kill you if you look at me funny”#to “feral fish woman who was never actually socialized”#to “billionaire”#Anyway there were some eyebrow raising moments surrounding Blur in that series#but I've always enjoyed the implication that the fact he's doing it for money is what keeps him comparatively grounded#even if it also makes him quite vulnerable to ratfucking when he won't toe the govt. line#that being the other thing- he takes the endorsements in large part because he's in a holding pattern waiting for some situation to arise#that actually meaningfully requires a superhero to resolve#thoughts#meta#supreme power#superheroes#the boys
